Secret Agent

Hitchcock dearly delighted in the variety of atmospheric locations, including a precipitous Alpine ledge, a crowded troop train and a sinister chocolate factory, in this "thriller, with elements of comedy", based loosely on Somerset Maugham's 'Ashenden' espionage stories. John Gielgud, Peter Lorre, Madeleine Carroll, Robert Young, Michel Saint-Denis.
